WOW! I don't know if they even have those in the UK. They aren't going to be new so a dealer showroom is out of the question. Check the papers. Find a used one with low miles. Make sure to know the history of the car.

Low miles....that is key. When you start to get into the higher mile 7's that is when you get into replacing one soon. The engines can last a good amount of time if taken car of properly. Just keep that in mind....

RUN!!!! I don't know...this is not a cheap car. Quite frankly they are money pits but if u still want to get one: Low miles or low miles on a new engine...if it is above 50k without a new engine then you will have to replace or rebuild soon.
